Did you know that thanks to the Liberty Ellis Foundation we have the opportunity to discover the oral history of almost 2000 immigrants who passed through Ellis Island.

"I remember being on the boat in the very, very lowest part of the boat in one room, four children and my mother. And most of us were sick most of the time.

We only had apples and, you know, other fruits that would come from colder climates." --Mae (Malka) Rappaport b.1908; arrived at Ellis Island -1913
